In our application for development consent this site manages storm flows by utilising existing storage in the sewers upstream of the pumping station. Work to the pumping station would inhibit it from pumping flows from the local combined sewer overflow (CSO) into the River Thames.
Shad Thames Pumping Station is an existing operational Thames Water pumping station site. The proposed site comprises the pumping station and a section of Maguire Street extending to the intersection with Gainsford Street The location of the site is shown below.
Construction is assumed to start in 2018 and be complete in 2019. Where appropriate some advance works may be carried out before the main construction period.
Please refer to the application documentation on the Planning Inspectorate’s website (link below) for full details of our proposals for this site.
